The film has something of Hugos Hunchback of Notre Dame, and indeed King Kong, but has an eccentric style of its own: a decent childrens film.

Youd think fun could be had with the idea of fleeing a flea, but gags are few and far between.

And there are some decent laughs and energetic set pieces despite a flimsy script.

Bibo Bergerons charmingly animated but fiendishly plotted feature is up for an Oscar and just about deserves the compliment for originality, if not fo ..
This Is London
3.0
Even though the wheels eventually come off, this is the film that will always be Birmingham born actress Felicity Jones calling card.
2.0
Its hard to fathom who this 3D combo of horror, musical and twinkly retro nostalgia is aimed at.

From its curiously light opening to its emotive climax, the best thing about this animation is that it gets better and better as you grow into its own ..
